However! There is a reason he’s not a 1st or 2nd rounder. Given that he’s a lead running back, why is he so low to begin with?

Draft Strategy

Langford can fit into your draft strategy if you are willing to pull the trigger on him in the 4th round. If you wait until the 5th round, it will probably be too late.

While is average draft position is 4.11, the Scenario Calculator shows that in a 12-team PPR league, you only have a 28% chance of him being on the board at the 5.03 draft pick.
